Running a Nozzle Check
Before printing, follow the steps below to run a nozzle check from your
printer driver. The nozzle check prints a pattern of dots that lets you see if
any print head nozzles are clogged. By running the test from your printer
software instead of the control panel, you are also verifying that your printer
is connected and working properly.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and paper is loaded, as described on
page 1-16. (You can print the nozzle check on any kind of paper. If you
use the Doubleweight Matte Paper that came with your printer, you’ll
be able to save your higher-quality paper for actual print jobs.)
2. Do one of the following:
Macintosh: Open an application and select Print from the File menu.
Windows: Click Start , point to Settings , and select Printers .
Right-click your printer icon, and then select Properties (Windows 95,
98, or Me), Document Defaults (Windows NT), or Printing
Preferences (Windows 2000).
Windows XP: Click Start and select Control Panel . Click Printers
and Other Hardware , then click Printers and Faxes . Right-click your
printer icon and select Printing Preferences .
3. Macintosh: Click the utility button.
Windows: Click the Utility tab.
